Pro Football Weekly’s Power Rankings are updated every Tuesday during the NFL’s regular season and are intended to rank teams based on their talent and performance to date. Rankings will change each week because of personnel changes, injuries and performance, and a team’s ranking in any given week has no impact on where they might rank in weeks to come. Rankings will fluctuate a great deal more the first few weeks of the season as teams seek their levels and schedules balance out. These are PFW’s Power Rankings entering Week 14 of the 2018 season.

Rank / Team / 2018 Record / The Skinny

1. Rams (11-1) — Dante Fowler Jr. quietly was a nice pickup

2. Saints (10-2) — Might not face a defense that good again until playoffs

3. Chiefs (10-2) — Spencer Ware has a chance to play hero

4. Patriots (9-3) — Defense has done its job well of late

5. Chargers (9-3) — Got some luck at Heinz, but don’t underrate this team
